concerts you missed and are kicking yourself for
 
I, in my frequent state of retardation, forgot to go to a concert once. I had tickets for Buffy Sainte-Marie and completely forgot about the show until my sister called at around 10:30 and said "Uhhhh... wasn't Buffy tonight?" Apparently the show was fantastic and I can't believe I missed it!

Another was in 1996, I think. The Cure played in Vancouver and I was a student at the time, so clearly couldn't go. Word on the street is they sang Love Cats and played for like three hours. Sigh...

My mother missed an opportunity to see Elvis by one day. She still is "reeling! It hurts [her] feelings!" over it! And I'm pretty sure "it hurts [her] self esteem. it hurts [her] everything!"

My dad missed a chance to see Roy Orbison and kicks himself over that one too. And the reason! They got too drunk to make it! WHAAAAT???? Yet, funny! :lol:

Oh, God. This is an easy one:

Fleetwood Mac on The Dance Tour.
Stevie on the Enchanted tour.
Stevie on the TISL Tour.

Can I go slit my wrists now?

Super easy
 
Lindsey's Soundstage show. I will forever want to kill myself for not going to C-Town. :(

I wish I had been an LB fan back in the day so I could have seen the OOTC tour. I would have been about 17 in 1993.

One more for me. Before I saw the film Ray, I didn't know Ray Charles' music very well but now I absolutely love it! He was here maybe 5 years ago. That would have been something. And the best part is a friend of mine went and he had an announcer who said, between every song, "Ladies and gentlemen... Ray Charles." She said he laughed hysterically every time he said it, 'cause he said it totally schmultzy!

I'm going for the Oscar

Easy, Stevie just 2 Thursdays ago in AC.

"Enchanted" tour - Radio City Music Hall :distress:

i went to the Jones Beach and Holmdel shows, but not the NYC show.... as it turned out, NYC was the best show of the three and one of the best on the entire tour... She hadn't played Radio City since the "Wild Heart" tour, and hasn't played there since... i will always regret not going to that show :(

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers on tour for "The Last DJ."

I even had a ticket to go see him at the Sleep Train, but the person I was supposed to go with bailed on me. :(

I ended up using the ticket as a bookmark for awhile, but then lost it altogether.

I wish I could have seen Buckingham/nicks back in 1973. Okay I was only a wee lad, and had no idea who the were, and didn't live anywhere near where they played. I still wish I would have seen them though. And let's not forget Fritz back in the late 60's. Can you imagine seeing Stevie open for Janice Joplin? *sigh* oh well......

Same here. One of my good friends lives in Chicago and had an extra ticket. I can't believe I didn't go. :distress:

I'm going to regret it if I can't find a way to get to Red Rocks on Wed.

LEATHER&LACE64 07-16-2005 01:46 PM

not being able to fly to Houston today to see Stevie after my girlfriend won tickets off of the radio! :distress:
